Ukrainian border guards destroyed two cannons, shelters, and manpower of the Russian occupiers near Bakhmut, the Ukrainian State Border Guard Service reports.

“FPV drones of the Revenge brigade destroyed two Russian howitzers D-30 and D-20 in the Bakhmut direction,” the report says.

According to the SBGSU, “in order not to get up twice”, they destroyed both Russia's shelters and manpower with Mavic and attack drones.

Situation at front

The Pokrovsk direction remains the most active in terms of the number of enemy attacks, and the Russian occupiers have partial success in some areas. The Ukrainian Defense Forces are taking measures to prevent the enemy's advance.

In particular, the Russians have recently conducted four mechanized attacks by companies and smaller units in several operational areas in the Donetsk region to test Ukraine's response.

At the same time, according to the Institute for War Studies, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are succeeding in counterattacks in the Kharkiv region. The Russian occupiers are also increasing pressure near Avdiivka and in the area of the administrative border of the Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia regions.
